"Are we interested in treating the symptoms of poverty and economic stagnation through income redistribution and class warfare, or do we want to go at the root causes of poverty and economic stagnation by promoting pro-growth policies that promote prosperity?"
- Paul Ryan
About this Quote
This quote by Paul Ryan is asking whether we need to focus on treating the signs of hardship and economic stagnancy, such as income inequality, or if we must focus on the root causes of hardship and financial stagnation. He suggests that we need to focus on promoting pro-growth policies that promote prosperity. This implies that we should focus on developing financial opportunities and encouraging financial development, rather than just redistributing wealth. This would be a more reliable way of attending to the origin of poverty and economic stagnancy, instead of simply treating the symptoms. Ultimately, Paul Ryan is suggesting that we ought to focus on creating economic chances and encouraging economic growth, rather than merely redistributing wealth.
